Big 12 Insiders: Arizona State Sun Devils w/ Chris Karpman + Utah Lands '27 RB Jonah Mailei, Noam Yaacov Update

This episode opens with a busy stretch of Utah news, starting with the Utes landing a commitment from 2027 Skyline running back Jonah Mailei, the first running back pledge in Utah’s 2027 class. We also talk through the latest with Noam Yaacov, whose strong showing at the NBA G League Combine has created a more complicated — but not unexpected — waiting game for Utah basketball as NBA interest grows. Then, SunDevilSource.com publisher Chris Karpman joins the show for a Big 12 insider conversation. We get his view on Arizona State’s rise under Kenny Dillingham, how sustainable the Sun Devils’ momentum is, what the rest of the league should expect from ASU going forward, and where Utah fits in the Big 12 picture under Morgan Scalley. It’s a broader look at a league still trying to sort out its hierarchy — and what Utah has to prove as it enters a new era.
